Developing token generators
You can create a token-generator implementation by using the TokenGenerator
interface.
The following Java packages are required for implementing the TokenGenerator
interface:
-
org.sourceid.saml20.adapter.sp.authn
-
org.sourceid.saml20.adapter.gui
-
org.sourceid.saml20.adapter.conf
-
org.sourceid.wstrust.model
-
org.sourceid.wstrust.plugin
-
org.sourceid.wstrust.plugin.process
-
com.pingidentity.sdk
For each token-generator implementation, in addition to the methods described under Shared plugin interfaces, you must define the SecurityToken
generateToken(TokenContext attributeContext)
method.
PingFederate invokes the generateToken()
method when processing a security token service (STS) request to perform necessary operations for generation of a security token. The type BinarySecurityToken
is available and you can use it to represent custom security tokens that can be transported as Base64-encoded data. The TokenContext
contains subject data available for insertion into the generated security token.
